Our old friend Laura LaPlante is
back at the Orpheum this week in
"The Love Thrill." This time she is
the daughter of her father, whose
business is 'nearly on the rocks. The
creditors will and the outiook is
simply rotten. Dad is about licked,
but not so with the beautiful heroine,
for sHo has an- idea. She must force
her way in to see a certain man to
land a big piece of business. He is
hard to reach, so terribly busy mak
ing love to other women. So the des
perate girl pretends to be the widow
of a man, who she thinks is dead,
but who really isn't. Of course the
dead man turns up and simply gums
up everything. But unlike Napoleon
who had an idea also, she meets no
Waterloo.
Ever wonder what vaudeville life
is like? If you have, then "Upstage"
at the Lincoln will give you a real
thrill, for what happens backstage
and on the stage is wound into a
clever little story. Norma Shearer is
the girl who lands in New York with
$10.C5 and a lot of determination to
go on as a stenographer, but lands
a position as adding class to a "hoof
ers" double. Her self conceit leads
her to believe that she is the winter
show, so her position goes to her
hear and she quits and decides to do

life is not all a aeries of "slaeper

ends up in the chorus and is despised
because she is not a true trouper but
an "upstage." When she tries to
prove that she is really a true sport,
it nearly costs her life, but she fin

"Altars of Desire," is' the picture
zation of the American Weekly's
story that the censors said that no
producer would dare put into motion
pictures, but which Mae Murray made
into an entertaining picture, with the
aid of Conway Tearle. "Altars of
Desire is featured at the Rialto the
first half, Mae kills a fellow and runs
off, but by accident flees to the home
of an old flame. The moth and candle
stuff is again reenacted, A la Murray,
and should thrill all the fans who
like such. But when the sheriff comes
to capture the criminal, things thick
en and the action begins.
Interesting Specimens of Unknown
Origin Are Displayed in Museum
Crudely carved on a little drab
stone in the museum of the Nebraska
State Historical Society is the meager
inscription, "Jno. B. Hill of 111., May
18th, 1850." Mr. ,E. E. Blackman,
the curator, likes to imagine the un
known and doubtlessly interesting
man whose prairie grave was thus
marked.
"Since this tombstone was found
near Diller, a 3hort distance from
where the Oregon trail passed, prob
ably this unfortunate pioneer was
one of the thousands whose wagons
made that famous highway across the
continent. Disease or a stray arrow
from a hostile Indian caused his un
timely end and," he continued, "the

Milton Sills in "Puppets," a story
of a puppet show in New York's east
side, of an Italian who leaves a
knife in the wall to warn all people
that he will return and if they have
tampered with the affections of his
wife, well, use your own judgment
He is supposedly killed and one of the
stage hands falls in love with his
wife, but the knife still stays in the
wall and finally the hero returns,
stone deaf, then in a fight hears his
betrayer pleading with his wife to
leave, they draw lots to see who shall
put the knife thru the other's heart,
and such a drawing! You'll have to
see the picture to find the conclusion.
The story of "White Collars,"
played by the Pierre Watkin Players
this week, is woven around the prob
lems of the great middle class, nei
ther presenting nor delving prob
lems. The daughter of a bookkeeper
herself a stenographer marries
her millionaire employer and intro
duces him into her home. His at
tempts to ease their material burdens
with his money causes them to take
refuge behind their pride, and they
refuse what "Cousin Henry" calls the
millionaire's "charity." It is pleasing
large audiences at the Lyric.
The play has a homely quality
which should appeal strongly to the
so-called "middle Class" whose know
ledge of life as it is here portrayed
is an actuality. Its lines and situa
tions are clean throughout. It con
tains nothing of the morbid, abnor
mal, unusual, weird or even strange,
and it is entirely lacking in either
"sex-appeal" or sex interest, so
called. The Pacific Coast Company of
"White Collars," which originally
produced the play in Los Angeles, is
now in its 108th week in that city
and still going strong. Adv.
rest of the train paused to place this
crude monument.
"Thousands of young men started
to the far west and were never heard
of again. Why, I remember when I
was young, people hated to have their
relatives start for California. So
often it meant disappearance and
lonely graves such as this," indicating
the little chunk of limestone.
Symbolic of the drama of pioneer
days was this Oregon Trail winding
over the plains and mountains from
Kansas City to Astoria on the Pacific
coast. Here were, birth and deaths,
hopes and despairs, jealousies and
jolly good times, with always the
patient creak of the wagon wheels
cutting into the hard ruts of the
trail:
Often burdened with supplies they
could no longer carry they abandoned
them along the way. Frequently they
buried valued household goods in
hopes of some day returning. Mr.
Blackman recalls the unearthing of
a cookstove which had been left in
this way.
"Ploughing on his farm one day a
Nebraska farmer discovered a mound
which he thought was a grave. When
they investigated it instead of pulling
out a coffin, an old barrel was taken
from the hole." Thus Mr. Blackman
reminisced, "When they tipped the
barrel they could hear a liquid mov
ing. It proved to be full of apple
jack. Merely another treasure left
along the trail."
'That's the funny side, but here
is the tragic one," returning to the
relic on the table. "This man was
lucky to have this much left to his
memory. Hundreds of graves were
marked with a stick or bunch of
flowers which have long ago disappeared."
One of the museum's most treas
ured curios is the term Mr. Blackman
applies to the tombstone. It was
found by William Green while he
was ploughing on his farm near Dil
ler in 1894. A few years later J. A.
Shugart presented it to the society.
"It's the only tombstone we have,"
remarked Mr. Blackman. Besides
that, its undoubted connection with
the romantic Oregon Trail make it
one of the best known of the mu
seum's relics.
